À propos de cet audio
On a cold December night in 1962, two men were led through the echoing halls of Toronto’s Don Jail. Beneath their feet, a trapdoor waited. Minutes later, Arthur Lucas and Ronald Turpin became the last people ever executed in Canadian history.
In this special Halloween episode, we step back into that chilling night — and the crimes that brought both men to the gallows.
Through archival records, press accounts, and historical context, we explore how Lucas and Turpin’s deaths marked not only the end of two lives, but the end of capital punishment in Canada.
This is the story of justice, mercy, and the night the noose fell for the last time.
